The tutorial that the "DjangoGirls" initiative is using for all of its workshops. It's a very beginner-friendly tutorial with introductions to the command line, Python, Django, HTML and CSS. No previous programming experience is required.

Once participants have finished the tutorial, they will have a small working web application: their own blog. The tutorial will show them how to put it online, so others will see their work.

The tutorial is available in English, French, Chinese and Ukrainian. "beta" versions of translations to other languages are also available. (The English version is considered the "original" and is usually the most maintained, complete and up-to-date one.)

All students learn differently. It is important to understand the thought processes of all students. I wanted to use the class blog to demonstrate my students’ thinking and increase their engagement. I worked with all the different areas of learning styles presented at this PD day. I created different assignments and I had the students put their work on our class blog

SeeSaw is an app that allows students to have a blog within our classroom. We use it as a communication tool for parents and online portfolio in Kindergarten. I created learning folders to be used for assessing learning outcomes. In Grade One students use their ipads to take pictures of their school work. They decide what items they want to be posted on their blog. They also practice writing on the note pad and drawing through the drawing portion of the app. I also document grade one learning on SeeSaw.
